Grades: A+

Analysis: What a way to end the WrestleMania Night 1. It was Heymania instead of WrestleMania. Paul Heyman became the biggest prize on the Night one of WWE WrestleMania 41. Paul Heyman betrayed his best friend CM Punk for the Tribal Chief Roman Reigns. He betrayed his Tribal Chief for his newest client, Seth Rollins. This match was a pure cinema.

Seth Rollins was the right choice to win the match because he had done all the hard work in the past few years and deserved this victory. CM Punk got the most important main event spot. It’s time for the Tribal Chief to think about his future as he has already lost two WrestleManias with or without his bloodline and Wiseman. Overall, WWE WrestleMania was a great night as a wrestling fan.
